Phase I of the development includes 115 apartments in two blocks alongside three commercial units. Phase II of the development was initially planned to comprise 170 apartments in a 28 storey tower, but is undergoing redesign as of early 2019.[3]

The development site is located in the £1 billion regeneration project in Cardiff Bay, the Cardiff International Sports Village. The site of the project is situated along Victoria Wharf next to the River Ely and Cardiff International White Water, linked to the Pont y Werin footbridge and Waterbus stop. Cardiff International Pool is 200 yards away.[4][5]
